Dragonball (Z and GT included) is my favorite anime so it just won't feel right until I post here.

If Funimation ends up dubbing the new movie I hope they'll get at least one big name voice actor or actor to voice one of the new characters, if they could get Samuel L Jackson for Afro Samurai they can surely get someone for this.

That was a shitty special. This is a movie. Pretty much every DBZ movie has been dubbed. Those that haven't, were released with subs soon after.

Wahh you don't like Vegeta's bro? jk yeah special was pretty ehhh.

I want to know if this Sayien God mode is canon or not. From what I hear Tori is helping with the movie or something so idk. I know with GT he only did like designs so maybe this will be better compared to GT

There's a tyrant king with a reptile heart
And he's started a wave of crime now
From his ship high above he abducted my love
For the fourteenth or fifteenth time now

What's the difference between the two? Because I believe this is the first time I've heard of pure hearted Saiyans.

Kuririn pretty much says that he thought only a Saiyan with a pure heart could turn into a Super Saiyan, which Vegeta responds that his heart IS pure; evil, that is. Whereas a pure blood Saiyan is...exactly as the name says - Saiyans with nothing but Saiyan blood. Gohan, Goten, Trunks and Pan aren't pure-blood Saiyans since they have human DNA mixed in.

Also, FUNi acknowledged that they know people want them to license Battle of Gods. Though their response was "You want it? Buy more stuff."

It seems like everyone behind the movie forgot that Kaio's planet was actually destroyed when Goku brought Cell there before he exploded. So it's odd that not only would he have his planet again, but it's somehow connected to Beers.

I really like the fact that they brought up Tarble, confirming the Jump special was in-fact canon. Though from what I'm reading, it seems that Pilaf and his crew just...stop appearing once everyone takes on Beers. Which is another thing, it seems like Pilaf and co becoming kids due to an accident with the Dragon Balls is a bit of a nod to GT (while also possibly retconning it, since Pilaf and co are old as dirt at the start of it).

Another goof that I've seen (from promotional art) is that Kaioshin seems to be unmerged with Kibito. And speaking of the Gods, Mr. Satan supposedly finds out Dende is the God of Earth, yet he was told this by him during the fight with Majin Boo.

All that aside, I *really* like the fact that they pushed the idea that Son Goku is not the strongest person. The whole movie sounds really fun and I hope it gets released here soon.

11:50:45 <bay|SC|FUNi> Q: DBZ Battle of the gods?
11:51:12 <bay|SC|FUNi> A; All dragonball z movies must be option to fox first and they have to turn it down, and it hasn't been even optioned yet in the US
11:51:44 <bay|SC|FUNi> (speculates that it will take 2 years till it comes out)http://bayoab.info/live/old.php?panel=263

I have to say the movie is pretty good. The problem is king kai's planet that should be dust. A big incosistency for the so called "new continuation of DBZ". all in all its pretty good and fits perfectly between Z and GT.

Spoiler:

Seems to me like hes forgotten a lot of his own work, like how Gohan isn't even supposed to go Super Saiyan any more or how hes supposed to be the strongest none fused character or how to write Gohan over all. I don't think Gohan would ever get drunk and ask a kid to shoot him when other people around him, let alone his wife being behind him.

I'm starting to get bad vibes from this film, this is why I liked the Cell saga the best, people other than Goku got to try and save the world and passed that down to his son Gohan.
These days it seems like only Goku gets to save the world *Sigh* Whats worse is, Vegeta should have been able to get that power up but due to him being evil at one point can't =/

Krillin's and Yamcha's new looks are also big WTF moments here, why change them like that? Yamcha looks like hes dipped into the fountain of Youth and turned younger. Krillin, I don't even know what to say about that guy. Its like the guy is trashing his own series now, did he hate the way he drew Yamcha and Krillin or some thing?

About OVAs and specials, I don't think they ever dubbed those, films on the other hand. I don't like the new VAs though.

As much as I like GT I think it could have been longer and better. I feel like they left out a lot of information when it comes to the dragons and baby. The super seventeen half was the best since it was a true test of ssj4. But other than that ssj4 seemed useless even after gogeta. Cause goku used the spirit bomb and super dragon fist in normal for to beat seventeen and omega. Goku and vegeta Jr was a nice addition to the series even if it doesn't continue after them

Other than that I can't wait to see super saiyan god in action and the fight against bills. But I do see a second battle coming and maybe a third.

Gohan isn't even supposed to go Super Saiyan any more or how hes supposed to be the strongest none fused character

Why are people so quick to forget none of the first half was ever actually said? In fact, all that's ever said is this:

The dub never even addressed that part. As for the strongest non-fused character, remember that the movie takes place years after the fight with Majin Boo. At this point, Gohan's not needed to do any training, so he's taken things easy. Remember that this also happened during the 7 years between Cell's defeat and Gohan's fight with Dabra.

The only specials they dubbed were the Bardock and Trunks specials. And what new VAs? You mean just #18's and Bulma's? Cause hardly anyone else got recasted, unless they wanna also give Goten Gohan's child voice. And even then, there's nothing wrong with them. Z's dub was bad in comparison to Kai's.

It falls under the logic of how Super #13 powered up using the parts of #14 and #15.

I watched the English dubbed version so that'd explain a lot to meXD Guess I'm not the only one who does this, I'm not the only one annoyed by that part LOL.

Yah, its odd how they only dubbed two specials, forgot about the History of Trunks and thats one of my favorites. I mean, it has so many OVAs and specials besides that one but oh wells.

You didn't notice a change in Gohan's voice in Dragon Ball Z Kai? I guess since I'm a major Gohan fan and watched the Funimation version back before they changed any thing that I could tell, he sounds like kid Goku, just doesn't sound right and so its hard for me to watch that series ontop of that the music UGH!

I excluded Gohan because of the fact that he's an adult by the time the movie takes place, so his child voice isn't an issue. Also, there's nothing wrong with it, anyway. He actually sound like his actual age in Kai, as opposed to the obvious woman putting on a raspy voice to come across as a boy thing that happened a lot in 90s anime dubs. And what's wrong with the music? If anything, the American produced music lacked subtlety and focused too much on being obnoxiously loud, never stopping and theme-based.

It's my favorite anime. Though I was pretty mad at the fact that everybody but Goku could do no more than merely distract in GT.

I feel the same way about DBZ; pretty much everyone not named Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, or Piccolo (for the most part; I can't really think of anyone off the top of my head besides Trunks) is majorly outclassed. It's a shame, because Tien and Krillin are two of my favorite characters.

But Kuririn managed to outlive the non-Saiyan fighters and provided a good deal of help. Tenshinhan also did well in holding off Cell while #16 and #18 took off to hide. If anything, Yamcha and Chaozu were hit the hardest, though they never won any of their major fights even in Dragon Ball.
